Cross-References
Leah had weak eyes, but Rachel was very beautiful.
In the morning when Jacob saw that he had had sexual relations with Leah, he said to Laban, "What have you done to me? I worked hard for you so that I could marry Rachel! Why did you trick me?"
Leah became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Reuben, because she said, "The Lord has seen my troubles. Surely now my husband will love me."
Leah became pregnant again and gave birth to a sixth son.
So Jacob told Rachel and Leah to meet him in the field where he kept his flocks.
Jacob put the slave girls with their children first, then Leah and her children behind them, and Rachel and Joseph last.
He had six sons by his wife Leah: Reuben, his first son, then Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
These are the sons of Leah and Jacob born in Northwest Mesopotamia, in addition to his daughter Dinah. There were thirty-three persons in this part of Jacob's family.

So all the people and elders who were at the city gate said, "We are witnesses. May the Lord make this woman, who is coming into your home, like Rachel and Leah, who had many children and built up the people of Israel. May you become powerful in the district of Ephrathah and famous in Bethlehem.
Gill's Notes on the Bible
O Lord our God, all this store that we have prepared,.... Of gold, silver, c. that he and his people had provided and contributed: the gold, according to Jacob Leon r, amounted to 59,766 tons of gold, and 46,123 gilders, each ton to be reckoned at least 1000 pounds sterling the silver, reduced to the value of gold, made 46,337 tons, and two hundred and fifty gilders; but both, according to Witsius s, amounted to 20,585 tons of gold; and if the talents were talents of the sanctuary, and they double the common talents, as some say they were, it was as much more, and may well be expressed by
all this store, besides the brass, iron, c.
to build thee an house for thine holy name to perform holy and religious worship in it, for the glory of his name: cometh of
thine hand, and [is] all thine own: this he repeats, that God might have all the glory of all they had and did.
r Relation of Memorable Things in the Tabernacle and Temple, ch. 3. p. 14, 15. s Miscellan. tom. 2. p. 258.
